The Devils are awaiting word on whether the league will allow Mogilny's $3.5 million salary to not count against the cap this season as he is physically unable to play due to a hip injury, according to the Newark Star-Ledger.

One of the more intriguiing players in the draft, Mogilny potentially could be a point-per-game player, but he has had health issues. He thrived in New Jersey in his previous stint (83 points in 2000-01) under Larry Robinson and will be a huge part of the New Jersey attack. Should he stay healthy, he could be in line for a good season skating alongside Scott Gomez with 30-plus goals a possibility.
